Chapter 76 75. The meaning of becoming a god
An earth-yellow toad the size of a small hill lay on the ruins.
It breathes, filling the air with scarlet mist.
Below him were the ruins of human structures, soaked in blood. There was no body, because it had been devoured by this rising creature.
There are mysterious figures coming out of the depths of the mountain. They seem to want to talk to the toad. But this toad had a cruel temperament and would attack people without saying a word. As a result, he was surrendered by those people within a few breaths.
The mysterious monks seemed to have no ill intentions and started talking to the toad.
The conversation didn't last long, and you could tell that the expression in the pair of scarlet eyes was getting more and more exciting, and it was even more exciting than when it had just devoured a living person in the town.
The mysterious monks left and the toad returned to the river.
But at this moment, it is no longer the big toad that enjoys devouring the flesh and blood of living creatures. It calls itself "Hebo" and wants to achieve the status of a god.
The scene ends with the giant toad getting up from the rushing river and running towards the small town in the center of the rainstorm.
Then the mirror made of water shattered along with the image playing inside.
Li Xi'an stood next to the dead toad's habitat.
It built a nest in a large cave at the foot of a hidden mountain by the river. Inside the cave was a disgusting stench and several human skeletons carefully collected by this rising creature. Li Xi'an went to the depths of the cave entrance and burned it cleanly. Not even a trace of the poisonous miasma inside the cave entrance could escape, and was destroyed in the raging flames.
None of the ichthyosaurs have an appetite for this kind of stuff.
You can only set the fire cleanly.
Li Xi'an stood beside the cave entrance by the river and looked back at the past. Occasionally, the waves of air lifted up his forehead.
It's almost like watching a movie, except the picture isn't very clear. After all, it was the first creature to rise, and other mysterious monks were involved, and a long time had passed. You can't just rummage through it like you did with the boy before. It's as easy as looking at the other person's past and flipping through a book.
Mysterious monk.
It seems that Li Xi'an is not so mysterious and is an old acquaintance.
Those few people left in Kyushu rarely do things in such a secretive manner. They are planning, there is something they need deep in this mountain, for this reason, they can even put aside their arrogance and cooperate with the living beings. Unfortunately, it is certain that he is an ancient monk from Kyushu, but he cannot be sure whether he is of Yuchai Shunde's lineage.
Li Xi'an smiled.
With a wave of his hand, a group of ichthyosaurs gathered. These little guys ate the toad. He wanted to use the ichthyosaurs to watch something.
The practice method passed down to Toad by ancient monks.
The fish and dragon manifested in seal script, pieced together into fragmented ancient scriptures. It’s not that the ichthyosaurs failed to manifest, or that Li Xi’an’s recollection was wrong, it’s simply that this ancient scripture is broken and incomplete.
It tells about the sacrifices in ancient times. The people put a pair of boys and girls selected by He Bo on a bamboo raft, tied them with stones, and the bamboo raft sank just as it swam to the middle of the river. It is also known as offering sacrifices to He Bo to pray for good weather. Once the Hebo sacrifice is successful, and the river recognizes it, it can be conferred and canonized as a god. It becomes extremely difficult to fight on that river, and it is difficult to kill without absolute power to suppress it.
Toad took a fancy to this and evolved the path of cultivation himself, thinking that there was no problem. It was an excellent path for a creature like him that was not qualified enough to become a king.
There is indeed nothing wrong with the part of the practice method shown so far.
Li Xi'an waved his sleeves, and the fish and dragons dispersed and returned to his clothes, turning into golden scales.
So he needs more references.
When he took a step, Li Xi'an was stunned.
He cared so much about these things that he overlooked a crucial issue.
The ghost coffin was sealed in the slit abyss of the Yellow River Basin. According to the knowledge of the boy and the toad, the place he was in now was a mountain of 100,000 mountains.
How did he come here across half the Great Flame?
Not to mention the resurrection of heaven and earth, the distance between regions is so far. The spirit is active in the dream, and he cannot know what is going on outside the ghost coffin. And what happened to the ghost coffin to bring him here?
Little bits of golden light emerged as Li Xi'an thought.
It's the ichthyosaurs.
They sensed that their master's doubts were manifesting again.
The dancing of the body is the oldest language transmission. They sway around the young man in Xuanyi and tell. There is a deeper place under the narrow space. They use the passage below to drag the ghost coffin to Shiwanda Mountain for revenge. This kind of living being has existed for an extremely long time, with a weak sense of desire. Revenge is their favorite activity now, and their strong desire for stimulation allows them to taste the taste of life.
They recorded the traces of the Dragon-Slaying Sword when their master was sleeping, and followed them all the way here.
"Revenge?" Li Xi'an smiled.
The ichthyosaurs suddenly became restless, and their instincts sensed that an extremely terrifying will was brewing here.
Like a volcano about to erupt, or a dark sky approaching a storm. Incomparable, to engulf everything!
Xuanyi is changing, turning into the common clothes of people in this world.
No longer ancient.
Li Xi'an didn't have any divine energy in his body, and even his Yangshen realm cultivation had disappeared. His natural breath was eaten by the fish and dragons. Standing there, he was no different from a mortal.
"It's not revenge." The boy said.
The ichthyosaurs were puzzled.
"The red dragon died a long time ago, now..."
"Just an ordinary riser passing by."
…………
The huge creature fell to the ground, and the fish and dragons feasted.
The young man wearing a large cotton-padded jacket sat there with his hands in his hands, which was quite contemporary.
These rising creatures who have received the teachings from ancient monks are very easy to find. If you go to a piece of land, you can find whatever mountain gods, river gods, land gods there are.
100% sure.
Li Xi'an raised his hand, and a scripture emerged and the words flowed. As he found more evil gods, the scripture became more complete. Now only the latter part is missing.
He is not worried that there is no complete ancient scripture in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Those monks made a deal with the evil gods, and as the evil gods went deeper into the path of becoming gods, the ancient scriptures they exchanged would become more complete. Even if there is not a single soul in the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains who has cultivated to perfection. He could wait for a while, or wait until the ancient monks came to the door themselves.
Not wanting to wait, he went straight to kill the evil god along the way, just hoping that the mountain range would be cleaner and less dirty.
The fish and dragons ate up the fallen behemoth and slipped back into the sleeves of Li Xi'an's cotton-padded jacket.
This large cotton-padded jacket with a contemporary feel was given to him by an old man in the village where he killed an evil god. Others were more or less in awe when they saw the fish and dragons flying in the sky, and the terrifying method of devouring and rising creatures in an instant. The old woman cared that he was wearing too little to keep warm. He said that he had so little to wear in these two months, no matter how powerful his magical power was, he took out the big cotton-padded jacket that he had collected at home and wanted to give it to Li Xi'an.
He would not refuse such pure and beautiful kindness.
So now the sleeves of the big coat have become the favorite nest of fish and dragons.
There are still some fish and dragons that have not returned. They carry Li Xi'an's spiritual thoughts and swim deeper into the mountain.
The two years he spent sleeping in the ghost coffin refined his consciousness to a terrifying level, enough to guide fish and dragons to swim for more than a hundred miles.
"Found it."
The boy, who was almost wrapped in a big cotton-padded jacket, stood up.
The guy discovered this time is unprecedentedly powerful, much stronger than the previous ones. The ichthyosaurs are excited, which means the flesh and blood they devour will be even more delicious.
Humming a ditty often heard in the mountains, the young man's posture resembled that of an old hunter who had lived in the mountains for many years.
This is also true.
It's just that the prey is an evil god that is unimaginable to ordinary people.
